Summary

Prone position (PP) is standard of care for mechanically ventilated patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome in the intensive care unit (ICU). Recommendations suggest PP durations of at least 16 hours. In 2020, COVID-19 pandemic led to a great number of patients requiring mechanical ventilation and PP in the ICU. Risk of ICU staff viral contamination and work overload led to prolongation of PP duration up to 48 hours. Here investigators report outcomes of prolonged PP sessions in terms of skin complications (pression injuries) and ventilatory improvement.
